Fruits and fruit juices are well-known to have very high amounts of Vitamin C. However, they also have dietary fiber, potassium, magnesium, and Vitamin B in them.

The most common varieties of fruits and fruit juices found in today's grocery stores are: Oranges, Grapefruit, Lemons, Limes and Grapes.

However, people also may be reminded that other fruits also offer these same nutritional values. Other fruit and juice varieties include: Apples, Pears, Figs and Apricots.
